Beauty Tips For Healthy Skin

Warmer weather means more time under the sun. Other than applying sunscreen regularly, there are some simple steps that can be added to your beauty regimen for a healthy complexion that will enhance your natural beauty.

Do not underestimate how important it is to exfoliate regularly even if you are not a fan of makeup products? By exfoliating, you help speed up the natural process of cell turnover and help shed away the dead skin cells. You will not only achieve a brighter and smoother complexion, but may also reduce the amount of beauty products needed since your skin has better absorbency. Natural ingredients like oatmeal, coffee and sugars are great exfoliants.

If you have oily or acne prone skin, you might be familiar with the use of salicylic acid in various acne treatment products. However, excessive use of salicylic acid might cause dryness and skin peeling. Try cleanser with 2% salicylic acid once or twice a week to fight blemishes.

Natural oils are great for cleansing and moisturizing your skin without added preservatives, fragrances, and other harmful chemicals. For example, coconut oil and olive oil are some of the great alternatives to remove your makeup.

Choosing the right face mask for your skin type can be a daunting task. Just to name a few, there are sheet mask, clay mask, and gel mask to choose from. These masks are all designed to deliver different benefits tailored to your skin type. Additionally, you can easily create your DIY face mask at home using natural ingredients like avocado, honey, or olive oil.

Sunscreen is definitely the beauty staple swear by makeup artists and celebrities. It should be worn all year round to protect your skin from the sunrays that might cause skin cancer, skin discolorations, and premature fine lines, wrinkles and aging.

Limit Makeup
No matter if you are using natural, organic, or non-comedogenic makeup products, you are exposing your skin to some chemicals and additives that can harm your skin. Always cleanse, tone, and moisturize your skin twice a day to avoid pore clogging. Try to avoid makeup for a minimum 2 days a week to achieve a healthy skin in the long run.

Clean Surfaces
Since our cell phone is always carried around with us everywhere, it is important to clean and disinfect the surface of it. Additionally, make sure to replace your pillowcase every week to get rid of any hair products residue or germs.
